Summary
An experimental investigation was carried out into the processes taking place during the sintering of powder alloys of the systems Cu-Cd and Ag-Cd. The method of sintering Cu-Cd and Ag-Cd alloys with a given cadmium content is discussed. Results are presented of tests of electrical breaking contacts made of a Cu-Cd (99% Cu, 1%Cd) and a Ag-Cd-base (76.5%Ag, 22% Cd, 1%Ni, 0.5%Fe) powder alloys.
